Last Minute Independence Day Crafts

fireworks This holiday really came fast for me.  This is the first holiday all year that we haven’t had several crafts for.  It’s the day before the 4th and not a single craft has been done.  Well, we plan to do a couple today. If there are other craft slackers out there, here are some ideas I found online…
